Many Happy Returns, Bugs

WHAT'S ON THIS WEEK'S HIGHLIGHTS - Take the kids

April 20, 1990

The young folks can be part of Bugs Bunny's 50th birthday celebration Saturday at the Orlando Science Center in Loch Haven Park. The Wascally Wabbit will lead everyone in the bunny hop, participate in a musical interlude, lead the breaking of a big carrot-shaped pinata and conduct a ''What's up, Doc?'' contest with prizes. The touring birthday bash - Orlando is one of nine cities on Bugs' itinerary - is being sponsored by Brach's candy. The 1-3 p.m. party is free with center admission ($4 adults, $3 ages 4-17); however, children age 12 and under (accompanied by a paying adult) can get in free if they bring an empty 12-ounce-or-more Brach's candy bag. Also, the first 1,000 children will get birthday cupcakes and Brach's candy.
